    Brief

    This opportunity involves re-validating the qualifications and skills of Swift Water and Rope Rescue Supervisors and Instructors for the Search and Rescue Team (SRT). The re-validation program ensures that each watch or shift maintains at least one qualified supervisor on staff and that all personnel maintain current competency in swift water rescue operations and rope rescue techniques. This is a professional development and compliance initiative designed to keep emergency response teams current with safety standards and operational readiness. Qualified trainers, certification bodies, or training organizations should submit proposals for conducting comprehensive re-validation assessments of existing supervisors and instructors.
